Reborn to be a Stepmother

Chapter 215: return trip

Views:

Xie Jingtian didn't know what happened that year. He tried to ask Concubine Chen, but he didn't get a definite answer.

It should be another story, but Concubine Chen didn't want to mention it in front of him.

He only knew that since the year he was born, he was expelled from the palace by his father, who made him live with his mother and concubine, and came to Yuntai for more than twenty years.

But his mother and concubine did not want him to live like this, so they handed him over to his grandfather, who then entrusted him to the Xie family.

He grew up in Xie's family since he was a child, and he didn't know anything about his life experience.

Concubine Chen had only gradually told him these things in recent days.

"I'm going, what's the plot? Your mother and concubine did something wrong. The emperor wants to drive her, a pregnant woman, out of the palace and send her to Yuntai Mountain thousands of miles away."

Xiao Ting didn't finish the question in one breath, and asked again, expressing surprise.

"And I haven't paid attention to it for so many years, isn't it too outrageous?"

Since ancient times, how lucky the emperor was, Xiao Ting once again despised the emperor, thinking that he was sincere to his aunt. Now it seems that every woman in the palace has a story.

"Hehe..." Xie Jingtian imitated Xiao Ting's expression, laughed twice, then changed the topic, and said: "What's even more outrageous is that a few days ago, the emperor seemed to have thought of us, and sent someone to pick us up again."

"What?"

Xiao Ting couldn't express the shock in her heart now, is there anything more bizarre than this

"The emperor is too much, he drove you out for so many years, and now he comes to pick you up again, what happened?"

What Xiao Ting thinks is that if there is a change in the palace, the Ninth Prince's Mansion will not be spared, and I don't know if Xiao Shi and the others are okay

Xie Jingtian nodded, "I'm afraid that something has changed in the palace, or maybe he really dreamed back at midnight, thinking of our mother and son who were exiled here by him."

After that, the two didn't talk about this matter again, but talked about each other's experiences over the past year.

When Xie Jingtian heard that Xiao Ting had been in a coma for three months after his death, something strange flashed in his eyes, he had already heard about this matter, even if he didn't deliberately inquire about it, he would still know something.

Concubine Chen went back and forth, interrupting their conversation.

"Let's leave today. As for her, you can take her with you if you want."

Concubine Chen glanced at Xiao Ting casually, and said to Xie Jingtian in front of her.

"Mother Concubine, she is injured, can we stay for a few more days?" Xie Jingtian pleaded, wanting Xiao Ting to rest well.

Xiao Ting raised her hand to interrupt them, and said, "I, can I ask, does this have anything to do with me?"

She just strayed in okay

Why the mother and son, both inside and outside the words, showed that she wanted to go with them.

Why

When did she say she was going to be with them

"Since you are the woman Jiyao wants, you have to call yourself a concubine in front of me, understand?"

Such a noble lady, Xiao Ting was so angry that she almost spoke.

She doesn't even look down on the empress dowager, let alone this concubine Chen who was cast into the cold palace, her aunt is still a noble concubine, and she doesn't have such a big airs like her.

"Concubine Mu, she is still young and doesn't know court etiquette, so don't force her on these things."

"..."

Concubine Chen didn't speak again, she has sent someone to check Xiao Ting's identity, and I believe there will be a result soon.

But Xie Jingtian didn't wait for her to ask, and directly explained, "If the minister says he didn't know her before, the concubine mother won't believe it either. Yes, we have met several times before."

Xiao Ting stared at Xie Jingtian helplessly, listening to him making up a story about a beautiful woman saving a hero.

What he said was so sincere that even Xiao Ting almost believed it.

Who knew each other since childhood, and was saved by her, and fell in love at first sight when we met each other.

It's all about what.

Concubine Chen finally agreed, and her son took Xiao Ting back together. Before leaving, she looked deeply at Xiao Ting for the last time.

"Xie Jingtian, you are going back to the imperial city, and you want to take me with you?"

Xiao Ting was full of joy, she was worrying about how "Lu Manman" would walk back, but she didn't expect a big gift from heaven.

"Yes, I'll take you back together." He said solemnly.

"Also, call me Jiyao from now on. Xie Jingtian is already dead." When Chu Jiyao said these words, his expression was a little lonely, his eyes long and distant.

But he can say whatever he wants, after all, to her, the name is just a title.

They had obviously been preparing for a long time, and they left as soon as they said it. Before leaving, Xiao Ting suddenly remembered that she forgot one thing.

"Well, there is a child I want to find."

"Child?" Concubine Chen saw the carriage stop, just as she lifted the curtain, she heard Xiao Ting say, "Do you have a child?"

"He's my brother."

"We went up the mountain together just now, and he went to join in the fun. I haven't seen me for so long, I'm afraid I'm going to cry!"

Xiao Ting was about to run down the mountain while talking.

Chu Jiyao held her back, "I'll send someone to look for it, your injury is still not healed, go back and rest."

As he said, he picked up Xiao Ting and put her into the soft car.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, especially those guards who tied Xiao Ting up, they looked at each other, they were really amazing.

Randomly tied up a woman, who turned out to be known by the First Prince.

And very concerned.

After asking about the situation, Chu Jiyao ordered everyone to look for it.

Sure enough, there are many people and strength is great. Not long after, Xiao Ting heard the voice of a child not far away.

"Let go of me, I'm going to find my sister."

"Don't try to lie to me, my sister is not your dog prince's woman, she is mine..."

Before the person arrived, she spoke first, Xiao Ting knew that Er Gouzi was coming, she quickly raised the curtain and called, "Er Gouzi, come here."

Two, two dogs

Everyone looked at their noses, their noses watched their hearts, they didn't show it on their faces, but they were all muttering in their hearts, I'll go, what name is it, it just ran out of some corner.

Er Gouzi was dragged by those officers and soldiers, he spotted Xiao Ting at a glance, immediately shook off the hands of those people, and ran to the carriage.

"Sister, don't you want me anymore?"

"How can it be?"

"Then why did you run away secretly? I've been looking for you everywhere, but I can't find you."

"It's a long story, come on, come up, let me tell you..."

As soon as Xiao Ting greeted, before the driver could say anything, Er Gouzi jumped up nimbly, and the curtain was lowered to isolate everything from the outside world.

Concubine Chen said with a sullen face, "Even if you like her, you should teach her the rules. That child must be ten years old!"

"What the concubine mother said is that the minister will teach her in the future."

"It's good that you know, I'm afraid that you have been raised outside for so many years, and you don't remember your identity. This time, when you go back to see your father, don't let people gossip."

The curtain of the carriage was lowered, Chu Jiyao was silent for a while, then turned and got into another carriage.

A major event happened along the way, and the convoy almost split into two groups.

There is no other reason.

With Xiao Ting's popularity, Concubine Chen knew her identity without much investigation.

and all kinds of past.

She was immediately blown away, and wanted to drive Xiao Ting away, but Chu Jiyao said no matter what, she didn't agree to let him take Xiao Ting with her, and they were not allowed to communicate.

As a result, Chu Jiyao naturally would not agree, and his attitude became tough, saying that he would not marry Xiao Ting in this life.

This is his oath!

Concubine Chen was almost overwhelmed by his anger, and immediately prepared to forcibly drive Xiao Ting away.

But Chu Jiyao didn't agree to anything, and the two sides confronted each other, almost fighting.

As for your question about where Miss Xiao Liu is, hehe, she is catching grasshoppers by the stream with Er Gouzi!

The two had a great time playing, and their cheerful laughter could be heard from a distance.

In the end, Concubine Chen was still unwilling to break with her son, so she pretended to give up, but still found Xiao Ting in private.

"Have you been married before?" Concubine Chen didn't beat around the bush, but asked directly, with a flat expression.

Xiao Ting was playing games with Er Gouzi, and she replied unabashedly: "Yes, I was the Ninth Princess!"

Concubine Chen was taken aback, she didn't expect Xiao Ting to admit it so simply, she didn't know how to ask further.

Xu thought of something, she thought about her words, and said, "Then what are your plans when you return to the imperial city?"

"Plan? What plan do you want?" Xiao Ting turned her head, blinking her eyes, puzzled.

"I am asking you, are you planning to go back to the Xiao Mansion?"

Xiao Ting was taken aback, she hadn't thought about it, "Okay, I'll go back to Xiao's mansion!"

Originally, she wanted to talk about going to the Ninth Prince's Mansion, but thinking about the news she found along the way, Xiao Shi had already left, so naturally she would not go back.

Let's go back to Xiao's house then!

"You and Jiyao..."

Concubine Chen finally asked this, the question she was most concerned about.

"What's wrong?"

Xiao Ting looked at Concubine Chen in puzzlement.

"Jiyao likes you, do you know?"

Xiao Ting nodded, "I know, he said it before."

"Then when you return to the imperial city this time, would you consider marrying him?"

Concubine Chen found that if she didn't make this matter clear, this girl wouldn't understand the point at all.

"Marry him?"

Before Xiao Ting could answer, someone grabbed her arm. Looking back, Chu Jiyao was looking at Concubine Chen with a livid face.

"Mother Concubine, you promised my son that you will not interfere in this matter."

Concubine Chen didn't feel embarrassed at all, she stood up gracefully, looked directly at Chu Jiyao, and said, "As a mother, it's wrong to care about the lifelong affairs of your son?"

The two looked directly at each other, neither one was willing to back down, Xiao Ting felt that the atmosphere here was not right, so she raised her hand timidly, and said: "That's right, Concubine Chen is right."

After they left, Er Gouzi pushed Xiao Ting and asked, "Sister Xiao, stepbrother likes you."

It wasn't long before Er Gouzi became acquainted with Chu Jiyao at some point, and this kid was always the elder brother and the younger brother.

Very proud.

"Um."

"Then do you like him?"

Er Gouzi held his chin and looked back.

"I like it!" Xiao Ting said without thinking. She is her savior, her friend, and a good heart. She has no reason not to like it.

"Then will you marry your stepbrother?"

Er Gouzi asked again.

"Married? He's the eldest prince, boy, you're out of your mind. What is the identity of the eldest prince? How could you marry me? How could you marry me?"
